minus-squaredeadbeef79000@lemmy.nzlinkfedilinkarrow-up0·8 months agoYep! I always do this too. TL;DR: e aborts the whole script on a non-zero error. u aborts when using an undefined variable. -o pipefail aborts a piped compound command when one of the piped commands fail. Any other way lies madness. Or erasing the whole filesystem apparently!
